At the time of the now-historic events of September 11th, 2001, around 4,836 commercial and private aircrafts were flying over the US, with only 14 fighter planes positioned to act as the country's air defense. Through personal accounts with fighter pilots, air defense officials, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta, Lynne Cheney, and others responsible for the president's safety, CLEAR THE SKIES examines how Air Traffic Control responded to an unprecedented command to "clear the skies" of all non-military aircraft in under three hours.
